Due to a work rate too excessive, I'm at the stage of the Tour proximity of their arrivals. I do not have a chance to see the soft underbelly, those moments that prepare the delicious final which saw the peloton often pounce on the few that escaped and tear on a last throw of the kidney, otherwise called when the final sprint. I attended with a je ne sais quoi of nostalgia to the failure of Millar on the avenues of Barcelona, a doped rider to the bone but this is the Tour gentry who made his fame. Millar swallowed, I had to wait until tomorrow. Just in case. I was not disappointed. A little kid who tries his luck from distance, then that part company with his fellow breakaway any offhand. And who wins. And assumes the polka dot jersey. A first pro victory. He may win more if he has the chance to deliver in bulk.
Exactly, I thought seeing yesterday's stage, that this Tour has become a competition that could not be won as a team. A man alone will no longer be able, whatever its strength. Spencer needs to go back in his grave. Before Hinault was the time of the aristocrats, the best, time and effort solitary transcendence, we talked about wrestling, wrestling at loggerheads, Since the clashes ... bland Delgado and his followers (Indurain, Armstrong), people with no class, no special talent, the rollers in the business side as shit ten a day, which does nothing but win the Tour , have team members who do all the work for their "leader" (that is an anagram that). The stage yesterday, I said, gave me a smile. Although it surpasses its pursuers, the Astana team has two leaders. The second I spend on it. The first is more interesting. Already a winner of three Grand Tours, a classic, a league and a few secondary turns, he said by his untimely shift changes as a true mercenary, with no faith, which relies only on himself to outdo the others. A man without integrity, but with style. In short, a champion who opened perhaps a new chapter in turn. Badgers and pandas are gloating, what animal would it be Contador? The hyena is not bad, but ... Maybe you have an idea?
